As long as flights are staffed and going out on time, the company has no incentive to 'give' or 'negotiate' anything. Send your reserve thoughts and ideas to your union reps. Fly safely!
Wow! You really think the union gives a ?!”# about anything on a forum?! Can’t even get a response from direct communication with the union.
To me a bigger concern is a forced upgrade and all that goes with it. The reserve problem is just a small slice of why guys aren’t upgrading when they can/should.
Envoy is going to lose current/future pilots if that issue is not addressed. I’m pretty sure no one ever imagined this would be an issue when the forced upgrade provision was put in the contract.
